I had a dirt cheap Tesco one for 5 years that baked a loaf overnight pretty much every other night and often a cake/teabread in the day. When it died in the end (the seal on the bottom of the the pan gave way) I replaced it with a Morphy Richards fastbake (envy your tenner 8doubles!) - the one where the paddle drops flat. It works hard, making good loaves for sandwiches (not too heavy or too fragile) and teabreads. It makes a mean malt loaf, infinitely better than Soreens!!
Dont like the fast bake loaves - too sunblest
, I use the standard bake which takes about 3hrs for the full cycle. My loaf tins havent been out of the cupboard for errr ..... a long time!
I use the dough setting for rolls and baps and pizza bases mostly, and if it could physically do them I'm sure I would just press the button.
It does take a bit of concentration to get a feel for the right balance of liquid/flour/yeast for your machine. They are all different and the ambient temperature does make a difference (our kitchen can get cold). But it is so much less hassle, and cheaper too, than remembering to collect bread on the way home, and takes so much less of my time (bearing in mind I'm not around/awake to wait for it to rise sometime / maybe) and the bread tastes of something! Ten mins to fill it up before bed, out onto the cooling rack in the morning and it is ready for the buttie making round at tea time. And repeat.
Good flour also helps - half Lidls strong white / half Shipstons cotswold crunch is our day to day balance, flavour without too much extra cost.
